Manchester City failed to earn three points for the second consecutive Premier League match and lost their top position to Liverpool after the sixth round. Following a draw with Arsenal, Guardiola's side was held to a 1-1 draw against Newcastle on Saturday.
Yoshko Gvardiol scored for City, but the Magpies equalized with a penalty from Gordon. At that moment, Kyle Walker failed to maintain the line with his teammates, allowing the Newcastle striker to remain onside. Gordon capitalized on this, finding himself one-on-one with Ederson, and earned the penalty, which he converted himself.
After the match, City fans blamed the 34-year-old veteran Walker for the outcome. The defender faced a barrage of angry comments from supporters, who didn't hold back their criticism.
Fans condemned him for repeated mistakes, with some even wishing he would take Rodri's place, who is out for the season due to a serious injury.
Additionally, Walker has played five matches for Manchester City in all competitions this season and has yet to record any goal contributions.
